André Silva has hailed the impact Domenico Tedesco has had at RB Leipzig since taking over as head coach from Jesse Marsch in December.

Leipzig have emerged victorious in 11 of 16 games under Tedesco, with five of those wins coming in their last six games.

"He has changed the whole team," Silva told reporters ahead of Sunday's Bundesliga game against his former club Eintracht Frankfurt.

"We have a good time, and our results are good as well. That helps everyone," added the Portuguese striker.

"We have more possession, which means we have more control. I have more power in dangerous areas because we play more as a team."

Silva has scored 15 goals in 38 games in his first season for Leipzig.
